How come every time I need to search for a technical topic the only results are just thinly veiled blog posts promoting a SaaS product? Google’s results are increasingly diluted and unhelpful.

How can a single MAGA say with a straight face that they aren't concerned about what Trump and Musk are up to after their total explosion over Hillary's emails?

“Do not fall into the trap of anthropomorphising Larry Ellison. You need to think of [him] the way you think of a lawnmower. You don't anthropomorphize your lawnmower, the lawnmower just mows the lawn, you stick your hand in there and it'll chop it off, the end.” — Cantrill deno.com/blog/deno-v-...

Who did that tweet years ago that was like "if you watched the history of silicon valley in reverse it'd start with a bunch of assholes crudely slapping malware together, gradually transforming into smarter people solving harder and harder problems"

We're finally dismantling the federal government! Sure hope it doesn't serve essential functions that I've taken for granted my whole life

What a public perception pivot Elon has had. He could have done nothing and still be appreciated and liked. Instead he went full conspiracy theorist and is either dogwhistling, a blatant nazi, or somehow widly naive to how his gestures are interpreted (and he's supposed to be a genius?).

Either way, looking forward to the iconic Kraftwerk's Multimedia tour.

Ticketmaster, its fees and its bots, is ludicrous. Subtotal for 2 tickets to see Turnover during their "10 Years of Peripheral Vision" tour: $432.00! This was minutes after a pre-sale opened.

RIP David Lynch. Mulholland Drive changed my relationship with cinema. Thank you. It's time to revisit your ouevre.

Saw this great thread on HN about switching from social media to RSS feeds. Been feeling this way myself lately - might be time to finally add RSS support here.

ntfy.sh is awesome.

I'm digging into the Copenhagen Book . After using a handful of different managed auth systems, I've realized I'm missing the fundamentals.

Passive House. That's not a genre of music is it?
